Surviving Yourself Poems on Family, Silence, and Choosing to Stay What if the hardest thing you've ever had to survive was your own reflection? Surviving Yourself is a raw, spoken-word-inspired poetry collection written from the rooms we don't let people see - the living room after the argument, the bedroom after the apology, the silence between a father and a son who love each other but don't always know how to say it. These poems hold the weight of being the different child. The gay son. The one who felt too loud and not understood enough. They explore fathers who tried, love that existed but didn't always feel reachable, and the complicated space between expectation and identity.
